Wooden Clothes Hanger Towel Racks

I often find myself ogling pictures of bathrooms, especially ones with creative storage solutions. I think it’s because the one in my house is so tiny that it forces innovation in order to be functional, especially as the only bathroom in a busy household. These coat-hangers-turned-towel-racks by Ki at Junk Camp now have me on the lookout for some vintage wooden hangers of my own! I love the styling, especially since most of the fancy towel racks I take a liking to are completely impractical for my cramped space. These, on the other hand, take up relatively little space while offering a both a bar and a hook. You could also get funky and hang these in your kitchen, using the hooks as a place to put pot holders or oven mitts. (Her blog post also includes photos of a wonderful table made from Reader’s Digest condensed books, a definite must-see!)

I LOVE all these great ideas. But no one tells you how the mechanics of anything works! For instance, with the hangers, how do you hang them so that they stay away from the wall? You can see them, but one really doesn’t know how you did it.

@Vicki – if you follow the link to the original post at Junk Camp, she shows how she hung them using scrap wood as spacers. (You will always find links to the projects that we feature in a grey box at the end of the post.)
